I can't think of any reason for this. In big amounts licorice can be a laxative, and some medical books say it raises blood pressure. I would be curious to know as well if someone knows.

My dad has had 3 massive heart attacks and he eats licorace every day. Its his favorite treat. Licorice is a good treat for a heart attack patient because it is Fat Free.

"Licorice has been reported to cause high blood pressure, including dangerously high blood pressure with symptoms such as headache, nausea, vomiting, and hypertensive encephalopathy with stroke-like effects (for example, one-sided weakness). "
